Just awesome. I watch so intentely and sometimes I have a question and sure enough... if I watch enough, you''ll answer it. Today I saw you lock stiching on the 1st half sewing midway down an edge seam and then not lock stiching when you turn it over to so the other half. I asked myself why he didn't lock stitch it? Then later on in the video you discussed starting the sewing a little behond the middle on the second half to safe time and no need for the starting lock stich. WIth enough of your videos, "I won't be that guy!' haha

Hello Ben, You are so welcome! I am sure you will do just fine with your project car. I am often guilty of working in auto pilot for sure. I would say that stretch while sewing, is less important.

I'm a shade tree mechanic and its hard working on something somebody else took apart. You make reupholstering look like a walk in the park. I recently purchased a 84 Trans Am with the Recaro seats. How do I reupholster them and keep the Recaro logo ?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Demas, just try to duplicate it as best that you can. If the Recaro logo was embroidered, you can have it embroidered again. Please keep liking and watching!

is cloth or the vinyl cheaper ?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Bew, Generally vinyl is cheaper than fabric. However, vinyl has increased a lot in price the last couple of years, Please keep liking and watching!

What type and size of thread is used for sewing on this project?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello MZ, I use T-92 for just about everything on my industrial sewing machine. Please keep liking and watching!

[@TheHighlander71]

Technique #4653: dropping the camera just so that it points at a nice model airplane on the ceiling. You'll notice it's a fairly high number because it's not used very often. :)

When top stitching, you might want to check your bobbin thread first.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello User, Funny thing is I have been doing this 44 years. Sometimes I do check, (when I remember to). Sometimes after a long time of sewing with a huge bobbin, I find I run out. Bummer. Hehe Please keep liking and watching!

I have never seen a croc with two backs and bellies. They must have got that leather from the side by side zoo or River lake.

Nice seats and again excellent techniques minus the technique numbers. Here's a number technique # 376 fold the seam the one side while top stitching. Also not so happy with the way you're closing the videos. Maybe a review of what we just saw and learned.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Richard, I understand. I can't please all of the people all of the time. The truth is, when people know the end of the video is coming, they click off. If you notice, I have no intro, not outro, and seek no sponsors. I do not want to waste anyone's time. Right to it, then a quick end. On to the next one. I hope you understand.

- nice, i'd have done the same - narrower inserts. it would bug me that the patterns don't match but with that crazy gold tinted faux alligator it worked out. - re your technique nrs, been wondering about technique #1 and what it would be, just figured it out though :) - vegan leather - there are lots of different types, not all of them use plastic. the ones that do are just as unsustainable as any other plastic product. not much use saving animals if you simultaneously unsave the environment.. - and the seat hook comment made me laugh as it's also called a j-clip lol

Pleather = plastic + leather. What they mean is pleather is for people too poor to buy leather.
